Answering reviews column:
(I'm sorry if I didn't answer any reviews)
-Koorino Megumi: Wow! Thanks for the long review. I feel wanted now. *ahem* I love working on my
grammar and spelling. Why? Well, it's a habit because I've always got nagged for it at my past private school. YEAH! Got a 4.0 gpa for first year of high school! And sorry for the fast pace…I gotta work on detail. I just love the rush of an intense moment. Sorry if it caused an inconvenience. I'll try to put some juice in it. And about the language, I love Disney, but I just can't keep the language so clean. At least not for this story, that's why it's rated PG-13. I'll work on that too.
-RikkuFF10: Oh! I didn't think that people look upon my dictionary as a big influence! I'll keep you all
informed in my Jap dictionary so you'll know just what the heck I'm blabbering about. K?
-Allen: O.K. Mr. Smarty-pants. I KNOW WHERE YOU GO TO SCHOOL "AND" WHER YOU LIVE!!!! Also…work on your grammar, It's "which," not "witch". As for the cheap and short beginning…refer to Koorino Megumi's answer I gave her.
~*THANKS for the reviews. Keep them coming, please. I'm only a first-timer!*~
(sorry for any long waits on my updates. I got two GIANT summer projects to finish in three weeks, AND I'm trying to finish my comic for TOKYOPOP's Rising Stars of Manga contest with Allen. Oh! What to do?! What to do?!?)
One note: Everyone's three years older.
Ch.2
I've walked so long, I can't remember
Where was my home?
Their distant faces fade away.
I'm always on my own.
I can show a smile
It's not hard to do.
I can have the strength
To go on.
But sometimes I wanna let go of everything
--You're Not Alone; Escaflowne (English Dub. Of 'Yubiwa')
Sora laid on his bed staring at the crescent moon outside that illuminated his tiny room He just had a long argument with Donald about needing more munny for the gummi ship. They needed to install more parts to venture out more and further beyond where they've been.
He couldn't sleep. It wasn't from all the stress; he just didn't want to dream anymore. If dreams came to him, he would probably want to sleep forever.
"What do these dreams…mean?
Or are these even dreams?
Are they trying to show something?
Or am I just crazy…
Doushite…"
He was trying to find answers to questions that were never asked.
Sora couldn't take any more of this. He wanted to tell someone, in truth. But he didn't want to burden them with something so hard to believe.
He sat up on the side of his bed. Thinking too much of something that couldn't be answered hurt his head.
Taking out his keyblade, he examined it. It looks so harmless until in his hands.
"Doushite?"
The Mickey keychain made a light tap against the handle.
**FLASHBACK**
So much to do…so little time.
Take your time.
Don't be afraid.
**END FLASHBACK**
It was the dream that he had when he was on Destiny Islands.
"Matte…I wonder if that was a dream, too?"
Sora remembered it; falling into darkness, a trial to set his path, his shadows becoming his own enemy…a door to the light.
"…doushite…?"
Sitting up would probably keep him awake.
"What would it hurt to rest my head? I'm getting tired of thinking anyway?"
Slowly, he laid his head on his keyblade.
But, sleep would eventually engulf him; it came very easily.
And so he slept.
Doushite…?
~*@*~
~*(Sora's P.O.V. –point of view)*~
I'm dreaming again, aren't I?
Falling like before…
But where?
My eyes are too heavy to open.
I open my eyes to a very bright light blinding me. As my vision adjusts, I find myself on an Island.
…
Destiny Islands?
How?
I don't know how. But here I am…
"Sora!"
…I recognize this voice. But I can't tell if I'm hallucinating, or id I should turn around and answer.
I turn around.—
I think my heart had stopped for that moment.
Kairi?
She stood there, in her same posture, only with longer hair. I look at her, and she's smiling at me with water-filled eyes.
"Y-you came back…I thought you were dead."
She comes up and hugs me.
"But, I still waited…"
I don't know what to do, I was in Traverse Town awhile ago…
I hug her back, tightly, never wanting to let her go.
"I can't forget my promise."
And we stood there…crying and hugging for almost forever.
Until I noticed someone charging at us.
I was the only one who saw it coming faster and faster.
In their hand, was the Dark Keyblade.
The same one Riku had.
"KAIRI! Move!"
I shove her to my right, out of the blade's way…
…
Cold Dark metal hit my chest
It was then I realized who it was.
Because I looked into his eyes in such terror as I slowly lost energy.
…
"SORA!" Kairi screams.
This is only a dream, right.
The blade disappears and I fall to my knees.
I'll wake up soon.
I fall into darkness…and that's all I see.
Only a dream…
